I scooted the salt shakers around: the original positions are confusing. I also added some salt to the one in the foreground.

I told myself I wasn’t going to compare my drawing to the photo, because it has no bearing on my perspective when I am sitting, but the background leg is so wrong I must. And these new canvases don’t allow for hand erasing: I’ll need to get the gum eraser.

I didn’t think I could make myself draw the bosom accurately, but I did.
